Viana do Bolo

When & Where Viana Do Bolo takes place in the days leading up to lent in the town of Ourense in the Galicia of Spain.

Spanish Flour Festival

What to expect Flour everywhere This is a Mardi Gras with a difference as the town looks like a snow storm hit it. Everyone throws flour at anyone. There’s plenty of suggestive dancing and flirting and on the Sunday the Folion drum parades hit the streets. The bars are hopping all night long and there’s a crazy meal going on in the sports hall later.
